  3. beautiful poem ...... the pictures are just bursting with unexpected color - esp the top one with the snatches of blue sky and green tree reflected water. It's all such a beautiful tribute to what grew you :)

  8. What a beautiful river... and how important it is a part of how you "grew into"...you. And your paintings are dreamy and magical. Roxanne

  11. That first photo has such beauty in it. And "where I grew into me" is such a poetic phrase to me.
